Schedule of Courses
Please note that students must complete the entire curriculum, which meets at predetermined times throughout the year, in order to receive the certificate of completion.
Should a participant miss one or two classes, he or she will have the option of either attending another class offered by CIIS Public Programs or completing a special project at an additional cost. Read policy for missed classes and out of town students below.
Policy for Missed Classes and Students from out of town
If a student misses a class, he/she must make it up by taking another class that is equivalent of the content in the missed class. The student may take a non-certificate class through C.I.I.S. Public Programs at a 15-25% discount. Or, the student may find a class elsewhere to fulfill the requirement. All make-up classes must be approved by Silvia Nakkach and the Director of Public Programs.

Students can accrue 20 hours for an individual project at an extra cost
